Hello world, as it happens, I need to write a method of vcl::Window that will return its unique id. In most of the cases it'll be the same as its help id (i.e. path/to/ui/file/widget/within), but sometimes it won't.
While writing it, I realized that such a method already exists. I tried to dig in git logs, but since most of the occurrences of Get/SetUniqueId uses can be attributed to the infamous 'initial commit', I didn't find much. Questions for the more knowledgeable ones: * What is vcl::Window Get/SetUniqueId good for and is it still needed nowadays, when most of the dialogs are not resource-based? * For some windows, argument of SetHelpId as well as SetUniqueId is the same (example: sd/source/ui/view/drviewsa.cxx, DrawViewShell::Construct ). Isn't SetUniqueId call redundant in such case? * For yet another windows that set their unique ID, this ID is referenced only in helpcontent2/helpers/help_hid.lst and nowhere else (i.e. in no .xhp file). Can such ids be dropped? What is help_hid.list used for anyway?
